Weird problem after friday patch

After the patch on friday I get a wierd video problem (at least I think it's video). Everything looks fine except that every 30 seconds or so the framerate seems to fluctuate and makes the screen appear to skip a few beats. I didnt have this problem on thursday and I didnt update my drivers or change any settings. The game was fine up until the friday patch was applied. Anyone else getting framerate problems after the last patch?

Yep. I have the same problem. It was working fine before.

Ditto here.

I think they're overloaded.

Mine worked fine...but i have a good card so that probably explains why. Try putting your Guild War to lower quality or smaller resolution to make it run faster.

It's not the graphics card. It's a network issue or overloading on Anet's servers.

I know EXACTLY what the problem is...School just let out...more people online all at once...all those damn kids...bah! (I'm a teacher...shut up).

Oh, I do NOT doubt that even for a second! The thought crossed my mind too.
